    Sometimes these puzzles jump out at you, other times they leave you scratching your head. @JimInOz ’s capsicum rebus is an example of what should have been an easy solve, but even with more time I wouldn’t have figured it out

    Anyway, sticking with the horological theme...

    The following puzzle depicts the name of a North American mountain peak, climbed unofficially, by four local climbers, on this day, 1910.
    The first ‘official’ ascent is recorded as being in 1913, by climbers who went by the South Summit.
    Until quite recently, the name of this mountain was known by another name. The pictures point to the peak as it is known today...

    If it’s the correct answer, I’ll try and work it out.

    Tim Horton’s Timbits

    Timber - tim
    From a bit of googling, I believe that the second picture is a licensed brothel, in Nevada, so hor is a subtle ( or not so subtle ) reference
    Bottle jack - ton
    Tiny Tim
    Horse’s bit
